No probs, as long I get it before I leave for D.G.

I might use it for an asignment if required.

Well hey, I might just be able to hand IT to you in person. I stress might. My wife is going with her sister to Las Vegas on the 19th -the 29th. Anyway, My sis in law, took out a loan this last week, and has offered to give us a few bucks, and we will pay her back.

What this means, is after they get back, I'll have a few bucks to go on a mini vacation myself, and of course, there's only two places I want to go. To visit you and Amy and the kids again, and of course I want to get up and visit Postman, he's been damn good to me and my fire dept. So If everything works out come next month...

Ahh...the Indianapolis...  The ship I try to sink EVERYTIME I play the Japanese in Victory in the Pacific.  No Atom bomb getting dropped on me... :D

True...very true...the Japanese Navy is always fighting for its proverbial life in turn 8...anyone who plays the optional turn 9 hates the Japanese.

Best result I've seen for the Japanese Navy...Pearl Harbor raid sinks every Battleship, then just racks up the points before turn 7 (the turn the US gets like 6 Carriers and 10 Radar assisted Battleships)  Even then...the Japanese are still trying to figure out how to hold on to enough sea zones to wind up with even 1 Control Point at the end of turn 8

You need a way to get rid of the carriers and the subs in 1941 to help your fleet first or all is lost.  But, I guess the world opinon in the end really is a major factor to. LOL!

Unfortunately because of the way the game is designed, you only have a 1 in 2 chance of even getting the shoot at a carrier that first turn, and then only a 1 in 3 chance of hitting said carrier.
